I need a cauliflower for dinner (and a few other odds and sods).

I don't want to drive to the shop because fuel costs are bonkers (thanks, twotsit) and, anyway, it's only 6 miles. Also, we need to take the car out later for archery.

But it's a NErly gusting to 70km/h out there, and with panniers on a fixed gear that sounds particularly unfun.

Should I don my big pants? Or is discretion the better part of valour, especially in pneumonia recovery? #decisions #BikeTooter

@ravenbait Is it tailwind which way?
Six miles is just long enough so that if you figure out it was a bad idea it will be too late (unles it's 'tailwind back,' in which case I'd say riding said bike slowly into it is do-able).

@geonz Tailwind on the outward journey, so battling it back home with full panniers. On a fixed gear. With a third of one lung not working.

Maybe not.
